O June! delidons month of June 1 ggfe
When winds and birds all slug In tune^ j||
When in the meadows swarm the beos $sg
And hum their drowsy melodies
While biUaglng the bnttercap,
To store the golden honey up
O Jane I the month of bluest skies,
Dear to the pilgrim butterflies,
Who seem gay-colored leaves astry, %M
Blown down the tides of amber day ,g
O Jnne I the month of merry song, M**"*
Of shadow brief, of sunshine long
All things on earth love yon the best
The bird who carols near bis nest
The wind that wakes and, singing, blows
The spicy perfume of the rose:
And bee, who sounds his muffled horn,
To celebrate the dewy morn
And even all the stars above
All night are happier for love,
As if the mellow notes of mirth
Were waited to them from the earth,
O June] such music haunts your name
With you the summer's chorus camel

PLANT LICE.
The firct plant lice that appear in
spring are hatched from eggs laid the
previous autumn, and are exclusively
females. Fr om these the species is
propagated throughout the season by
What is known as asexual generation,
tbn young being born alive through
many successive generations, and with
out any pairing of the sexes. Th
males and perfect femalesi. e., those
capable of depositing fertile eggs, only
appear late in the season. I is said
that the male form of the cabbage aphis
ihas not yet been discovered. Until
quite recently the eggs of the hop aphis
had not been found, but it is now
thought that they are deposited on the
terminal twigs of plum Uees, and sev
eral other species are believed to deposit
their eggs, on plants entirely distinct
Trom the ones upon which they feed,
i The peculiar, viscid sweetish sub
stance that sometimes appears on the
Heaves of pear and some other trees in
summer, and which is known as "honey
dew," is largely, if not entirely a se
cretion of the aphis Ants are fond of
this secretion, and hence are always
found on plants infested with plant lice.
Indeed, the latter are treated by the ants
touch as if they had been reduced to a
state of domestication. It is known
that the ants frequently transport the
lice from place to place, that they know
how to cause them to yield their sweet
teecretion at will, and they are also
(thought to protect them from their in
sect enemies. They are called "ants'
cows."
Last year the damage by aphis to
Sfruit growers and nuiseiymen in West
ern New York alone must certainly
ha ve amounted to hundreds of thousand
Sf not to millions of dollars. But this
Is by no means the only locality that
suffered, nor is the past the only season
5n which cultivated plants have been
injured by them. It is estimated that
the injury to the hop crop of England
in 1882, from the aphis, amounted to
$8,000,000. The dieaded phylloxera of
Europe, that has threatened to annihi
late grape-growing in many localities,
belongs to the family of plant lice, and
fchere are many other injurious species.
Perhaps no insect with which we
thave to contend is so difficult to bat
Itle successfully in the open air. With
nursery trees and herbaceous plants,
'kerosene emulsions or solutions of
twhale-oil soap prove paitially satis
factory. Bu the insects are so small
and so numerous, that it is practically
(impossible to reach them all, and owing
to their extiemely rapid multiplication,
the few that escape soon envelope the
the plants anew. I the case of large
trees, their destruction becomes much
more difficult. On the whole, the
mastery of the aphis in the open air
must be regarded as one of the unsol
ved problems in hoihculture.
THE SHIPPING CRATE.
Those who gr ow produce for market
do not need to be told of the importance
of neat and proper packing to secure
ready sales and best prices. The farm
er sometimes has a crop, such as an
unexpected crop of early apples, that
'he would gladly turn into money, but
the is not provided with baskets for
for packing his fruit, and if sent in bar
rels the fruit would arrive in bad order
,and bring low prices. such the
liushel crate comes as a ready resource.
A bushel crate is easily made, and forms
a neat and handy package for nearly all
Jkinds of pioduce. ma ke a bushel
crate there are required three pieces,
each eight by fourteen inches, for the
end and center piece the strips or laths
tfor the sides are two feet long. Th
width of these depends upon the article
to be packed. Sixteen strips are com
monly used, with spaces between for
ventilation. Of ter the corners of the
end and middle pieces are cut off this
makes the crate octagonal in shape,
which is an advantage, as it allows of
better ventilation when the orates are
stacked together. I building the crates
the two strips at the top are nailedtlown,
to allow an opening through which to
fill it. I packing in crates, as in bar
rels, they are to be shaken to settle the
contents, which should project slightly
at the top to require some pressure to
bring down the last slats, which serve
as a cover, into place. Vegetables and
fruits should always be packed with
pressure, otherwise they become bruis
and injured generally in transit.

BAD ODOBS IN MILK.'
When cows first get on full feed of
grass at this season they aie apt to
scour badly. If shut up at night and
milked in close stables night and
morning their milk will absorb the
odors from their manure and become
'extremely offensive. If cooled as
soon as possible and exposed to the air
the odors will disappear without being
noticed. But milk that has to be
carried to market or factories by milk
men is usually placed at once in close
cans. When these are opened some
hours later a strongly offensive odor
will pretty surely come from them. Not
long ago I heard of a daiiyman who
securod a herd of Holstein cows on
account of theiryield. In this he was
not disappointed, but the milk was
extromely offensive so that his custo
mer* would not take it. He would
have changed his valuable herd for
much poorer cows if some one had not
pointed out the cause of his trouble.
It is beat not to givegreen laxative food
unaccompanied by other and more
substantial diet, and especially in Sum
mer cows should not be milked in close
stables wherever it can be avoided.
Itispossible, and even probable, that
the frequent complaints that ensilage
in Winter makes thes milk taste bad
due to this cause!
^CULTIVATING CORN.
There are conditions of the ground
which ma ke the double diamond better
for the early cultivation of corn than
either the harrow or the cultivators.
When the Sprbngiswhat we term "back-
ward,'* the^weather being distinguished
by rains, accompanied by low tempera
ture the^ground becomes cold and wet
then the soU should be thrownaway from
the corn, leaving ridges to dry qulckjy
and warm up in the sun. The plows
may be run very close to the corn I set
them just six inches apart. A soon as
the ridges are dry, especially if the
weather promises to be less rainy, the
furrows should be closed and the ridges
cut dawn with the cultivators or harrow,
if the size of the corn will permit.
I am believer in level, rather shallow
culture for corn, have been converted
from the ridge theory by several
years of experimenting. I am as decid
edly of opinion that often ridge culture
is the better, as I have pointed out. Our
practices must vary with conditions.
This applies with special force to the
cultivation of corn, for during its season
the weather is so changeable that the
conditions are not often the same six da
in sucession. What is proper cultivation
one day may be wrong the next. When
a man insists that either level culture
or ridged culture is right uuder all con
ditions you may be sure that his preju
dices reduce his corn crop.
CURRENT NOTES.
Not only does the linden tree produce
honey in great abundance, but its qual
ity is regarded by many as equal, if not
superior, to that yielded by white clo
ver.
When a cow steps into the milk pail,
remarks an exchange, she also steps in
to the butter plate, and there is no get
ting around it.
Thin out instead of shortening in a
tree when you transplant it. I i3 a
mistake notion that it is the proper way
to cut off the ends of all the limbs.
One thing seems to have been quite
well demonstratedthat a larger quan
tity of potatoes, as well as potatoes of a
better quality, can be raised with chemi
cal fertilizers than with manure.
Of the newer hardy shrubs hydrangia
paniculata grandiflora is one of the fin
est. I is perfectly hardy, and produces
immense panicles of white flowers in
great profusion. I blooms in July or
August, and remains an object of beau
until cut down by frost.
The great improvement ma de by the
hybridizer in the gladiolus within the
past ten years are simply wonderful,
and a few bulbs from a good strain will
well repay a little trouble with beauti
fully shaded flowers. Th ey last in blo om
a long time.

Water-cressesWash well, pick off
decayed leaves and leave in ice water
until you are ready to eat them. They
should then be shaken free of wet and
piled lightly in a glass dish. Eat with
salt. They are a piquant appetizer on
sultry mornings and very whole
some.
Tulips are exeellent for early spring
flowers. The bulbs must be planted the
previous fall and protected through the
winter by a mulching of leaves or coarse
manure. Th tulips in the various parks
are a little backward this year. Some of
the earlier varieties will be in bloom to
day, but the larger proportion will not
be at their best for another week, when
they will be well worth traveling miles
to see.

"Do you know who that was that

The visitor was curious to see what
account of Dr Holmes the barber

A Peer's Daughter marries a Miner.
Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle: A very
beautiful English girl came to a min
ing to wn in Montgomery County,
North Carolina, last autumn to spend
some time with her uncle and sister.
The husband of the sister is one of the
owners of a gold mine. The ladies
were said to bo the daughters of an
English Earl. Th younger sister or
Lady Aymer, as she was called,
became well known in that section.
One of her pleasmes was to visit the
mine, where a large force of men were
employed. Among these miners was
Harry Bell, a native of North Carolina
Lady Aymer and Hany Bell soon had
stolen interviews. A week ago Lady
Aymer's sister missed her. Bell, too,
was missing. I twenty-four hours
came the news that a marriage had
taken place between the alleged Peer's
daughter and the American miner.
Then came Mr. and Mrs. Bell. They
had gone over into Bowan Couty,
which adjoines Montgomery, and were
married by a rustic preacher.

Pi is the outgrowth, or result, of this great
g, and valuable experience. Thousands of
testimonials, received from patients and
from physicians who have tested it in the
more aggravated and obstinate cases which
had baffled their skill, prove it to be the
most wonderful remedy ever devised for
the relief and cure of suffering women. It
is not recommended as a "cure-all," but
as a most perfect Specino for woman's
peculiar aOments.
Mrs. A. M. Dauphin of Philadelphia, has
done a great deal to make known to ladies
there the great value of Mrs. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, as a cure for their
troubles and diseases he writes as follows:
"A young lady of this city while bathing
some years ago was thrown violently against

finally advised her to try Mrs. Pinkham's
Compound. She did so and in a short time
the tumor was dissolved and SHE IS SOW IN

womb for seven years, so I had to keep my bed
for a good part of the time. I doctored with an
army of different physicians, and spent large sums
of money, but received no lasting benefit. At last my husband
persuaded me to try your medicines, which I was loath to do,
because I was prejudiced against them, and the doctors said
they would do me no good. I finally told my husband that if
he would get me some of your medicines, I would try them
against the advice of my physician. He got me six bottles of the
'Favorite Prescription/ also six bottles of the 'Discovery,* for
ten dollars. I took three bottles of 'Discovery' and four of
Favorite Prescription,' and I have been a sound woman for four
years. I then gave the balance of the medicine to my sister, who
was troubled in the same way, and she cured herself in a short
time. I have not had to take any medicine now for almost
four years."
